Bath resealing in St Newlyn East without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in St Newlyn East and across Cornwall.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

What affects the price in St Newlyn East
There is no charge for travel to St Newlyn East. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access

Questions from St Newlyn East
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in St Newlyn East?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Common problems we fix in St Newlyn East
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
Comparing quotes
- How to look after the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
Read our pricing.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What else we do in St Newlyn East
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
